"Little Pink House" is a movie about Susette Kelo, the Kelo in Kelo v. New London. She bought her first house, a little pink one, in 1997. Then the New London Development Corporation decided it would be better to take her Connecticut home and give it the the Pfizer pharmaceutical company. Kelo took her case all the way to the US Supreme Court but lost. The court ruled that New London had an interest in taking her property because they could charge Pfizer more for property tax.
This movie should be shown in every classroom to illustrate the need to combat runaway local government and disdain for property rights in the United States. Although not released nationally, you can find a list of show times at this web site Watch Little Pink House
